ATLANTA JUNG SOCIETY BOARD MEETING

Date and Time: Sunday, October 14, 2018 – 3:00 – 6:00PM

Location:  The Link Counseling Center

348 Mount Vernon Hwy

Atlanta GA 30328

3:09 PM Meeting called to order (Z)

  1. We welcomed Aja Snyder to the board as Publicity Chair.
  2. Z lit a candle for the hurricane victims, Robert Johnson, and Marion Woodman
  3. Z read a blessing by John O’Donohue.

MEMBERSHIP DATA BASE (Jennifer)

  1. Jennifer said that starting this weekend, buying new memberships will break even with the price of the upcoming lectures.  So we will focus on renewals and buying new memberships for next year.
  2. The board agreed to keep full membership prices and not offer a discounted rate this year.
  3. Don agreed to print renewal letters and bring them to the next meeting, and either Cathy, Z, or Jennifer will stamp them.

HOSPITALITY (Mahshid)

  1. Mahshid had nothing to report.
  2. Board agreed that the next lecture would probably be large, so we should have plenty of food.

BOOK SALES (Bill, Bob, & Deb)

  1. Bill said we have an Ingram account now, so we can order wholesale.  Their selection is a little limited, but he did order a couple basics.
  2. Deborah suggested making sure we have enough of Hollis’ books for the December meeting.

MEDIA/ SOCIAL MEDIA (Bill)

  1. Facebook denied boosting the ad on Buser because it was political.  Perhaps the rule will change, and Bill will try again with Facebook in January when Buser is here.
  2. Z asked for Bill and Aja to connect.  They agreed to do so once schedules allow.

TREASURER’S REPORT (Don)

  1. First three pages are budget vs. actual currently.  We have lost $10, 681.  This may be due in part to not having an October meeting.
  2. Don asked why the Book Income is about the same as the Book Expenses.  Bob suggested it may be because we have so many discounted books.
  3. Publicity, due to the Book Fair, is about $1,000 over.
    1. Jennifer suggested including this money in the budget for next year.  Don said this would be discussed at the Board Meeting in January.
  4. Bill asked about CEU Expenses and the Brochure Mailings.  Van spoke to the CEU dynamics, and Don spoke to the Brochure Mailings.  Cathy suggested both these topics could be covered in closer detail at the January board meeting.
  5. Vanguard Current Balance: $50,588.50
  6. Checking Bank Balance: $3,559.77
  7. Treasurer’s report was approved.

ATTENDANCE (Don)

NEW BUSINESS- Part 1

  1. In the by-laws, every position can only be held for two years.  Cathy reported that for the past several years, we have had issues with our treasurer.  Deborah talked to other Jung Societies, and many of them hire a Treasurer as they have had a similar issue.  (It’s not an elected position).
  2. We need to change the wording of the by-laws.  A business meeting will be conducted and membership will vote on changing the by-laws to:

Article 4 Officers Section 1 (as it currently reads): The elective offices shall be President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer.

Proposed New Section 1: The elective offices shall be President, Vice President, and Secretary. Section 1 a: The Treasurer will be appointed by the executive board.

NEWSLETTER/ WEB (Don)

  1. Van submitted an article on Marion Woodman.
  2. Cathy is going to get an article on Robert Johnson.
  3. Jutta had originally signed up, but is no longer able.
  4. Bill suggested asking Buser.  Deborah will ask Buser and Tarnas.
  5. Jennifer reminded Don she has sent him articles.  Don will look at those.

PUBLICITY (Cathy)

  1. Festival follow-up discussion:
    1. Jennifer said the festival went well.  They touched a minimum of 500 people with bookmarks.
    2. Aja agreed to send out a welcome email to the email addresses that we got.
    3. Jennifer said she hopes to do this again next year and to participate in other festivals.   
  2. Decatur Book Festival Exposure- what worked/ what didn’t
    1. Jennifer suggested we get a table cloth that covers the whole table
  3. Shall we do it again next year?

NEW BUSINESS- Part 2

  1. Fees: The Board agreed to keep the membership, lecture, and workshop fees the same as last year.  Unanimously passed.
  2. Apparel

    2. T-Shirts: We will sell the extra shirts at our next meeting.
    3. Aja said we could print logos on different items and then sell them at meetings.

APPROVAL OF JULY BOARD MEETING MINUTES
